Lawyer: Is there a problem, officer?
Officer: Sir, you were speeding.
Lawyer: Oh, I see.
Officer: Can I see y our license, please?
Lawyer: I would give it to you but I don’t have one.
Officer: Don’t have one?
Lawyer: Lost it four years ago for drunk driving.
Officer: I see… Can I see your vehicle registration papers, please?
Lawyer: I can’t do that.
Officer: Why not?
Lawyer: I stole this car.
Officer: Stole it?
Lawyer: Yes, and I killed the owner.
Officer: You what?
Lawyer: Killed the owner, I had to…self-defense. Otherwise, he would call the police and I would be in jail.
The Officer looks at the Lawyer and slowly backs away to his car and calls for back up. Within minutes five police cars circle the car. A senior officer slowly approaches the car, clasping his half drawn gun.
Senior Officer: Sir, could you step out of your vehicle, please!
The lawyer steps out of the vehicle.
Lawyer: Is there a problem sir?
Senior Officer: One of my officers told me that you have stolen this car and killed the owner.
Lawyer: Killed the owner?
Senior Officer: Is this your car, sir?
Lawyer: Yes, here are the registration papers.
The officer is quite stunned.
Senior Officer: One of my officers claims that you don’t have a driver’s license.
The lawyer digs into his pocket takes out his license and hands it to the officer.
The officer examines the license. He looks quite puzzled.
Senior Officer: Thank you, sir, one of my officers told me you didn’t have a license, that you stole this car, and that you killed the owner.
Lawyer: Bet the liar told you I was speeding, too.
